You know what I don’t get? It’s 10am local time, there is a vehicle in the driveway, you know a lot of people are still stuck in their homes, so why doesn’t USPS guy/gal/whatever just hit the doorbell, drop the package and walk away? Instead they leave it literally on the Welcome mat instead of the nice hiding place known as the post next to the door like UPS guy? These are the same people who broke my other package from Amazon and instead of owning up to it, probably tossed it and deemed it as lost. Yes, this is how I am starting my Friday.

You know how I like to occasionally mess with scam callers, right? Well for a couple of months I have been using this feature where if a number isn’t in my contacts it goes straight to voicemail. It works. I’ve missed a ton of scam calls and the random ones from New Mexico letting me know that it’s time to vote (I’m in California). Well today I encountered a new one. Guy called me, it went straight to voicemail and he left a message. He wanted to let his neighbors know about the word of the lord, proceeded to read a passage, and then wished me well on my day. Now I’m not a fan of scammers but guy didn’t seem like he had any evil intent, he wanted to take a couple of minutes share his view and move on. I have no beef with him…but I did block him. Good luck random guy.

I currently have the NASA/Space X launch streaming on my laptop and they showed inside the vehicle and it hits me, they’re sitting in there waiting for the launch in just under 2 hours. What are they doing? I get they are going over preflight and all that jazz but you have three big screens inside the capsule why not play something? Hell why not watch something, check your email, go Reddit, something. It’s kinda odd the astronauts are sitting there but they are not talking to each other. Either way I’m excited to see this. Growing up I wanted to be a part of NASA but I’m not a fan of heights so that job was out. Anyways it’s exciting to see a launch. Have a good one and WASH YOUR HANDS!

So the local mall here has announced that they are opening at the end of the week. I’m assuming there is going to be the usual: wear masks, social distancing, and all that jazz. Whatever. I’m just happy that A.) my local mom and pop music store is open and B.) CHEESE ON A STICK WITH A LARGE CHERRY LEMONADE AT HOT DOG ON A STICK! Guess which one I’m more excited about.

Since today we here in Sunny Southern California is under a heat advisory (it should hit 104°) what better breakfast to have than Steak and Potato soup. Yeah that’s how we started off the day and now I am ready to try and remember what games I kinda played, and then later on in the day remember one or two that I actually enjoyed but it’s too late I already posted on here. That’s life.

Good morning Pixlpeeps! It is Friday (right?) and I am typing this up before I start my day with some leftovers for breakfast. Breakfast of Champions! I think I will continue with my rambling style from Monday to today’s Quick Hits, but I’ll keep the ramblings somewhat organized:

Earlier this morning before I had to officially get up I went back to the other room where my baseball cards are all spread out and I continued to do my sorting. A little flashback: Before Virusfest officially made us stay home I decided that I wanted to sort out all my cards and put them in order. I also wanted to catalog each card but after doing football I scrapped that because it takes so long and my baseball card collection is twice the size. Ok so at this moment all my baseball cards are in team order on a bed, and I am putting them into 800 count boxes based on alphabetical order of the team name, not the city. I did the Angels and part of the Astros yesterday, and earlier this morning I finished the Astros, and labeled the box.

Ok so I totally forgot to post something earlier but I'm on my couch, on the phone and this song popped up earlier and I havent it in a while. I do wish it was on CD so I could at least own a copy. Anyways have a good night and WASH YOUR HANDS!

Yesterday around lunch I decided to try KFC’s Kentucky Fried Wings. Now I liked their old hot wings because if they cooked it right it was a good mix of flavor, heat, and not being burnt (sometimes their wings would be mummified). Now don’t get me wrong, I like the local KFC. Their service is spotty, a little slow, but the people are nice, and they will try and make things right. I placed an order for their new wings unsauced because who wants fried wings drenched in sauce when you can have the little cups to pour over them? Anyways I signed up for DoorDash, put my order in and then waited. Since the KFC is literally less than a mile away (remember my Cal Ripken like streak of not driving or wearing shoes?), add to that free delivery, and it was a no brainer. Well 30 minutes later I received my food.

Ramblings on a Monday morning:
